ASUS ROG Falchion Ace HFX Wired 65% RGB ROG HFX Magnetic Switches - Gaming Keyboard Black

ROG Falchion Ace HFX
The ROG Falchion Ace HFX is a compact 65% analogue gaming keyboard that boasts ROG HFX Magnetic Switches that feature a customizable 0.1-4.0 mm actuation range, along with a dedicated Rapid Trigger toggle for the fastest typing response. Plus, an 8000 Hz polling rate ensures ultra-responsive performance, making the Falchion Ace HFX considerably faster than competitor keyboards. Five-layer dampening and a silicone gasket mount absorb pinging noises and vibrations to provide superior typing experiences. A multifunction button and interactive touch panel allow for intuitive and effortless actuation point adjustments, control over media playback, volume, and keyboard lighting. Dual USB-C® ports on the left and right rear panel of the keyboard offer flexible connectivity, with a quick-toggle to switch between two PCs.

Compact 65% Form Factor
The ROG Falchion Ace HFX masterfully incorporates arrow and navigation keys into a 65% keyboard layout. In fact, at just 315 mm in length, it's almost the same size as a 60% keyboard. Enjoy all of the functions of a normal keyboard while saving desktop space.

ROG HFX Magnetic Switches
ROG's latest pre-lubed magnetic switches are engineered for a solid feel with lightning-fast, ultraprecise performance and a lifespan of 100 million keypresses.

Top Housing: PC top housing with the stem contact areas highly polished to ensure keystroke smoothness.
Stem Design: The walled stem design enhances keystroke stability and protects against dust intrusion, while maintaining compatibility with most keycaps.
Stem Material: Made of composite POM material with low friction coefficient for smooth keystrokes.
Based Housing: POM bottom housing for deeper keystroke sound.

Customizable Actuation Point
The ROG HFX Magnetic Switches offer an adjustable actuation range from 0.1 to 4.0 mm to cater to all typing preferences. Tweaking the actuation point can be done via the multi-function button and touch panel, or through Armoury Crate software.

Rapid Trigger
A dedicated toggle switch on the top-right rear panel of the ROG Falchion Ace HFX activates the Rapid Trigger feature for the fastest typing response and key repeat rate. By default, only WASD keys are enabled when this feature is activated. Rapid Trigger for other keys can be enabled via Armoury Crate.

Traditional mechanical switches require a return to the reset point before the next click registers. With ROG HFX Magnetic Switches and the Rapid Trigger feature, the switch resets instantly as it moves upward, delivering maximum counter-strafing potential with minimal effort.

Speed Tap Mode
In Speed Tap mode, as soon as the system detects the input of two keys (e.g. A and D), it will prioritize the last input and automatically release the previous one. This means that in FPS games, pressing two opposing directional keys will no longer cause the character to stop moving. Instead, directional changes can now be done immediately without releasing the previous key, eliminating any time gap for counter-strafing and ensuring precise aim every time.

8000 Hz Polling Rate
A high-speed USB microcontroller delivers an 8000 Hz polling rate that refreshes input up to 8X faster than most gaming keyboards, reducing delay from 1 millisecond to a mere 0.125 ms.

Intuitive Controls
A multi-function button and an interactive touch panel lets you tweak a variety of settings, including volume, media playback, keyboard lighting, and actuation point, as well as customizing commands. Additionally, the LED lighting bar on top of the keyboard displays dynamic lighting effects to reflect adjustments in real-time.

Five-Layer Dampening and Gasket Mount
The Falchion Ace HFX uses five dampening layers - two PORON® and three silicone - to absorb keystroke vibrations and pinging noise, providing a superior cushioned typing experience.

ROG PBT Doubleshot Keycaps
ROG PBT doubleshot keycaps provide a premium feel and offer long-lasting durability. Key design has been optimized with mid-height keycaps and a shorter stem to reduce key wobble, providing a more comfortable user experience.

ROG UV-Coated ABS Keycaps
ROG UV-coated ABS keycaps utilize a layer of hard UV coating to provide superb abrasion resistance protection against keycap shining.

ROG Keyboard Stabilizer
The pre-lubed keyboard stabilizer has been specially tuned with gamers in mind; it produces less friction, allowing long keys such as Spacebar, Shift and Enter to deliver keystrokes that stay true to the original switch feel.

Dual-Port Flexibility
The Falchion Ace HFX features two USB-C ports on either side of the rear edge for a much neater setup, allowing users to connect up to two PCs simultaneously and quick-toggle switch between the two.

Keyboard Cover
The bundled cover keeps dust away from the keyboard when not in use. It can also be placed under the keyboard as a tray mount.

Versatile Angles
The Falchion Ace HFX has two pairs of keyboard feet of different heights, giving it three ergonomic tilt angles to suit your preference.

Aura Sync
With Aura Sync RGB, the entire color spectrum and a range of dynamic lighting effects are at your command. Individually lit keys allow you to create a keyboard that's uniquely yours.

Armoury Crate
Armoury Crate unifies system and lighting controls. Easily create, define and customize scenario profiles, map keys, and record macros. You can also enjoy analogue customization features, such as Dynamic Keystroke (DKS), Mod Tap (MT), and analogue lighting effects.

On-the-Fly Macro Recordings
Record macros on the fly and map them to fully programmable keys.

Onboard Memory
Save up to six profiles, including up to five custom schemes, and use them anytime, anywhere.

100% Anti-Ghosting & N-key Rollover
Every keystroke is registered accurately, no matter how many keys are pressed.
